Ville Husso News

Alex Lyon was named as the Red Wings' starter for Friday's game, but the recall of Husso casts some doubt on Lyon's or Cam Talbot's availability. The Red Wings reportedly have a flu bug going around the locker room, so it's possible one of Lyon or Talbot is sick and won't be available against Toronto. Expect an update during their morning skate this morning. Husso has been spectacular since going to the AHL, stopping 69 of the 72 shots (1.23 GAA / .958 SV%) that he's faced in three appearances.

Three days after allowing four goals on 14 shots (.714 SV%) in the Red Wings' season opener, Ville Husso was placed on waivers. The 29-year-old carries a $4.75 million cap hit this season and is expected to be sent to the Grand Rapids Griffins (AHL) after clearing waivers on Monday.

The Red Wings enter the 2024-25 campaign without a firm starting netminder. Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon are both in the mix for heavy workloads this season but Husso will get the first opportunity to showcase his talents in their season opener against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday. The 29-year-old Husso spent most of the 2023-24 campaign battling injuries and was unreliable when called upon, posting a 3.55 GAA and .892 SV% in a limited 19-game sample size (9-5-2).

Husso has been sidelined since mid-February due to a lower-body injury and was loaned to the Grand Rapids Griffins for a conditioning stint last week. The 29-year-old Husso had struggled when called upon this season with a 9-5-2 record, 3.55 GAA and .892 SV%.

Husso remains week-to-week but returned to the ice in a limited capacity for the Red Wings on Monday. The 29-year-old Husso had struggled when called upon this season with a 9-5-2 record, 3.55 GAA and .892 SV%. Alex Lyon will continue to see the majority of Red Wing starts in his absence as veteran James Reimer backs him up.

Husso left last Tuesday's matchup vs. Edmonton due to a lower-body injury, and although this injury is unrelated to his previous ailment that kept him out of the lineup for an extended period, he remains week-to-week.

Husso left Tuesday's matchup vs. Edmonton due to a lower-body injury and is now expected to be out week-to-week as his season to forget continues.

Alex Lyon will continue to see the majority of Red Wing starts in his absence as veteran James Reimer backs him up.

Husso was making his first NHL start since December 18th on Tuesday, but lasted just 8:48 due to a lower-body injury. It's unclear if Husso reaggravated his previous lower-body issue or if he suffered a new one.

Husso will make his first start appearance since December 18th, ending a run of eight consecutive starts for Alex Lyon. Husso has managed a strong record of 9-5-2 on the season despite his own personal struggles. The 29-year-old netminder owns an .893 SV% and a 3.53 GAA across 18 appearances. It's hard to imagine a worse matchup for Husso to return to, as the Red Wings find themselves as +185 underdogs in Edmonton against Connor McDavid and the Oilers.

Husso wasn't scheduled to start on Wednesday but will be out of the lineup entirely after coming down with an illness. Husso has not played a game since returning to the lineup last week and will likely continue to be a secondary option between the pipes as long as Alex Lyon continues to give the Red Wings solid goaltending regularly.

Husso has not played since December 18th, when he suffered a lower-body injury, and, as a result, has been loaned to the Grand Rapids Griffins of the AHL for a conditioning stint before returning to the Red Wings. Husso, sporting a 3.53 GAA and .893 SV% through 18 games (9-5-2-), will likely serve as the backup to Alex Lyon upon his return.

Husso surrendered two goals on nine shots before leaving the game against the Anaheim Ducks on Monday with a lower-body injury. With Alex Lyon expected to be out of the lineup until after Christmas, James Reimer will likely start at least two of the next three games for the Red Wings heading into the holiday break. The Red Wings signed goaltender Michael Hutchinson on Tuesday to serve as a backup to Reimer in the interim.

Husso surrendered two goals on nine shots before leaving the game. Assuming he is unable to return, we can expect to receive some sort of update on his status following the completion of Monday's game. James Reimer entered the Red Wings' crease in place of Husso.

Alex Lyon exited Saturday's game in the second period with a lower-body injury and was replaced by Husso, who saved all 18 shots he faced in a 1-0 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers. The Red Wings will likely roll with Husso on Monday and hope that his performance over the last three games, saving 88 of 94 shots (.936 SV%), is a trend for the Finnish netminder, who had struggled immensely, posting a .872 SV% in his seven games before (4-2-1). The Red Wings are -237 home favourites against an Anaheim Ducks team that pulled off a surprising 5-1 victory in New Jersey last night.

The Red Wings are +149 home underdogs against a Hurricanes team that has lost four of their last five (1-4-0), scoring more than three goals only once.
